Quick answer: Churches, youth programs and nonprofits often ask volunteers who work with children or vulnerable adults to complete fingerprint background checks.
Why Organizations Ask
Fingerprint checks are more accurate than name based searches and help protect the people an organization serves.
How to Get It Done
Your organization should provide the reason code and where results go. Bring a valid photo ID to your appointment.
